Intergem Idar-Oberstein 2009
This year the number of visitors at Intergem trade fair reached last year’s number and finally 3.600 visitors came to Idar- Oberstein. The visitors were all important business travellers. The high customer loyalty of the exhibiting companies, all with an excellent reputation in their sector, was a key factor, responsible for a high visitor frequency in the new spacious hall.
In a sector where often a single customer can make all the difference between a failure and a successful participation in the trade fair, the quality of the visitors is of utmost importance. The spacious corridors offer plenty of room and the possibility to take a closer look at single exhibits without ever resulting in empty corridors. The new halls safety and security measures have also shown their reliability. Not an unimportant factor as the trade fair showed a trend towards more valuable gemstones.
